There is a good chance that you navigate life with a little more ease than I do. And there is equally a chance that you can totally relate to what I am about ready to share.

DRUM-ROLL PLEASE

Have you ever put off for tomorrow (or next week, next month, next year) what you can do today? I know I have! In fact, today I realized how out of control I have gotten. This isn’t a good thing. . . not at all.

Instead of taking time to lament about how guilty and dysfunctional I was feeling, I decided to simple start doing the next right thing. And the results have totally been impacting my afternoon in empowering ways. I am now feeling so much more positive about myself and hopefully making a difference too. Here are just a few things that I have done over the last few hours including:

organized my magazines meant for vision board workshops. (Translation: Magazines are now out of the middle of my ‘Creativity Cave’ and put into new plastic bins.)

called and scheduled giving Judaic ritual objects to three different families. I am still waiting to hear from about four other families. (I have a small nonprofit called Door l’Door which gives Judaic ritual objects to people who’s homes were devastated by natural disasters.)

worked for about five hours for my job.

started learning Yom Kippur’s Torah reading.

put a new picture on my wall.

connected with a close friend. . .it had been way too long.

left a message for someone who wants me to share Door l’Door with a group of 30 people in the early winter.

scheduled two phone meetings for tomorrow about Project Lifeline, an action that will hopefully help children being held in detention centers near McAllen, Texas.

took a long walk even though I was expecting the skies to open up. AND they did!

prepared three packages to be mailed in the morning.

Sometimes you have to one step and then another; once you start, you will find your rhythm. I am feeling so grateful because that is exactly what happened today.

Hineini, Here I am!!!

Onward with love, light, & action,
Chava
